    Hmmm. The Caesar salad was delicious. The owner kind. They were woefully understaffed due to sickness so it was madcap with a long wait. I wish I’d ordered something other than the lasagna.

    Excellent food and service. The owner usually comes by your table to say hello and see if you need anything. Several of the wines offered from the owners vineyard are excellent.

    Food was exceptional, local wine selection fabulous. Attentive and gracious service, particularly from Ashley - she absolutely made our night out so special. Her warm hospitality made our experience truly wonderful. Music level could be lowered a bit - we were happy to be seated in the quiet back room. All in all a perfect night out. Grazie!

    Great food and beautiful place. We went for our anniversary. Gets bit crowded and narrow walk ways. We had to wait almost 30 min despite of reservation. But main thing we go is for food and that was amazing. Every dish was very flavorful and deliciously perfect. Highly recommend.
